Destination: 16 Netley & Hamble
Creative Master Northcord Limited is pleased to announce the release of Alexander Dennis Enviro200Dart UK8014, utilising the 10.7m long wheelbase model with bonded windows to represent the distinctive modern single-decker in the United Kingdom, that carries First Bus Barbie 3 livery with service 16 route branding. UK8014 represents First Hampshire & Dorset fleet number 44510 (YX58 HWJ).
The service 16 between Southampton City Centre and Hamble village has seen this new bus operating since March 2009. It was back in October 2005 that specially branded Darts were introduced on the route. As a result, passenger demand grew so much that larger buses were required. An order was placed for four Alexander Dennis Enviro200 single-deckers and the new ???Connection??? branding was applied to all of them with a picture of ruins in the rear nearside and offside windows to represent Netley Abbey. 44510 (YX58 HWJ) is the last of a batch of four delivered to Portswood depot in Southampton. The other similar buses in the batch are numbered 44507/8/9 (YX58 HWF/G/H).
This service improvement is the result of a partnership between First Hampshire & Dorset limited, Eastleigh Borough Council and Hampshire County Council. The easy access vehicles can carry a maximum of 63 passengers. Branding has been applied over a basic Barbie 3 livery in all cases.
One of the new features, first seen on First Bus??? Enviro200Dart vehicles and replicated on the model, is the brand new design of the mirrors on both sides. The Alexander Dennis Enviro200Dart UK8014 is a one-piece casting whose clean lines accentuate the square-mounted, bonded windows and the livery application on which all logos and lettering are clearly legible. Creative Master Northcord is creating new design standards in the layout of the interior in the replica. These features inside the compartment represent the really outstanding layout of the Enviro200Dart, such as the additional seats on the wheel arch on the offside, and extensive portrayal of handrails in the compartment.
The brand new Enviro200Dart bus models will be distributed in the UK & Eire by John Ayrey Die-Casts Limited and is limited to 1000 pieces worldwide
